MILDRED SIGLER

Mildred Sigler, formally of Middletown, NY, passed away peacefully, after a short illness, in Port Richey, FL, on July 4, 2013, at the age of 92.

Millie was born June 24, 1921 in Middletown, NY, the only child of the late Simeon Merritt and Eva Smith Merritt.

After a career at the Middletown Psychiatric Center, Millie and her husband, Ray, retired to Port Richey, FL. Those who knew her will remember Friday nights at Diana's and later at the Red Lobster, her love for DeFilippis cookies, French onion soup, an occasional whiskey sour, and when in Middletown, a Coney Island hot dog. She would bring tomatoes and grapefruits for friends when visiting Middletown and take sweet corn back to her friends in Florida. She enjoyed reading, doing crossword puzzles, crocheting, and until recently, walking a mile a day.

The family would like to especially thank Pat and Andy Krotje, Carol and Keith Kornick, Millie Schrader, Bobbie Highman, Jean Wilson and Martha Hall for their friendship and caregiving to Millie over the years.

The family will receive friends and visitors at the Morse Funeral Home Inc., 33 Railroad Ave., Middletown, NY on Monday, July 15th, from 9 to 11 a.m., with the Funeral Service at 11 a.m. at the funeral home. Burial will follow in the Wallkill Cemetery in Middletown.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Brittany Miller Foundation, P.O. Box 3047, Middletown, NY 10940.
